Should I choose convenience/bad mental health over inconvenience and a fresh start?
Tl:dr
For years, since I started dating, I've realized I use men as a coping mechanism to my insecurity. I've gotten into a point where I'm very self-aware that what I'm doing is wrong but each time I think I've healed and faced the issue head on and I mean podcasts, meditation, journaling, all of it.
It used to be about my looks, but since I moved schools my sophomore year, it felt impossible for me to say no to people. I got into subs\*ances and got involved with guys who really didn't treat me right. I've been in this continuous cycle of insecurity and the more I did stuff like messing around and not cutting people off ppl that didn't treat me right put me in the spiral of shame. Like something would go wrong with a guy and then it would make me feel more insecure than before and then I would fix that with another guy.
In the end, I'm so ashamed of everything that I've done and how much I've changed since I moved to schools. I don't want to regret it because there's nothing I can do now but I really do feel like I'm trying to change and I just hate the idea of me changing and being stuck in discontinuous loop because my school is just full of people with no ambition and just want s\*x and dr\*gs.
I'm just not happy here anymore, but since it's close and convenient, I'm able to be more involved in school. so I guess the question is do I stay at my current school that is convenient even if I'm unhappy? I don't wanna be here because it's too accessible for me to do bad things and I wish I had the self-respect to not but that's my honest truth
I was thinking about moving back to my old school. The only thing is that it's 12 miles away from my house. I don't wanna burden my mom that badly. I was thinking about taking the bus or something.? I just really wanna try it out but it really is inconvenient but I went to the other school and I wasn't like that when I was over there cause people there just aren't like that and I'm still close with a lot of people there, but should I just suck it up and stay here?
